Ectotron

Ectotron is a Ghostbuster and Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.

I ain’t afraid of no sleep. I ain’t afraid of no bed.

Say you’re a Ghostbuster. You’re going out on a job, you need a ride, and you think you’ll need some giant robot backup when you get there. Who you gonna call? Ectotron!

This Paranormal Investigator can handle a Proton Pack, and knows that when life splatters you with marshmallow goo, you just go with it!

Oh baby! You’re my number one Christmas boutique gift item!

• Ectotron (2019)
  • Accessories: Proton Pack, hose, Slimer figurine

The first figure announced for the Collaborative line, Ectotron turns into a General Motors licensed custom 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor, representing Ecto-1 from the Ghostbusters series. In robot mode, he features several design cues based on the Ghostbusters’ uniforms, including his own nametag and Proton Pack.

Ectotron shares several parts with the Combiner Wars Voyager Class Hot Spot/Onslaught mold, most evidently the upper arms and legs. He comes with a 5 mm-compatible particle thrower accessory, and a delicious-looking translucent figurine of Slimer.

Ectotron is packaged in a nostalgic Generation 1-styled box, much like the contemporaneous Vintage G1 line.

Announced in the run up to Toy Fair 2019, preorders for Ectotron went up on Hasbro Pulse on February 15, 2019, before selling out within six hours. Ectotron will also be exclusive to GameStop in the United States and EB Games in Canada.

Notes

• Ectotron’s Tech Spec include the normal strength, intelligence, speed, and fireblast categories, as well as two new categories representing ghost trapping and “ghostbustability”.
